Why people fly to Palma with a dog
Mallorca attracts longer stays than Ibiza and has a substantial resident community, so dogs travel both ways rather than just out for a holiday.
Worth knowing on this route
Palma has more capacity than Ibiza and generally handles business aviation more easily, which can make it the simpler Balearic arrival for a pet trip.
Coming home is the regulated direction
Flying out of Great Britain is governed by the destination country’s rules. Coming back is where the APHA approved-carrier requirement applies, along with the tapeworm treatment window of 24 to 120 hours before arrival for dogs from most countries. Plan the return before you book the outbound. The rules explained.
Common questions
Can my dog travel in the cabin to Palma?
On a qualifying chartered private aircraft your dog can normally travel in the cabin. Operator pet policies vary by size, number and breed, and are confirmed before booking.
How long is the flight to Palma?
About 1 hr 45 min estimated airborne over 719 nm great-circle from Farnborough. Routing, winds and ATC affect the real figure.
What does my dog need to come back into Great Britain?
A microchip, valid rabies vaccination, the correct travel document and — for dogs from most countries — approved tapeworm treatment 24 to 120 hours before arrival. The carrier must hold APHA approval for the route and arrival airport.
